Gluten-Free Breakfast Cookies

Even before I was diagnosed with multiple food allergies and had to give up my Huevos Diablo and Blue Corn Chip Frittata I used to eat blonde brownies for breakfast. And sometimes, a cookie. Or two. I admit it. And yes, I'm one of those sly individuals who adds semi-sweet chocolate chips to pancakes and says, Dark chocolate is full of antioxidants, right? (insert wide-eyed innocent look).

So those who know me well will not be surprised I've been tinkering with my tasty Breakfast Brownie recipe and transforming it into (don't ask don't tell) some fabulous c-o-o-k-i-e-s. And, Yep. With chocolate chips.

It just wouldn't be breakfast around here without chocolate.

Gluten-Free Breakfast Cookies Recipe with Oats

Steel cut oats are highly nutritious and full of fiber. Softening them a bit before blending the cookie dough helps the final texture of the cookie. I eat mine slightly chilled- and sometimes I dip them into my green tea latte made with vanilla rice milk. Or... I zap in the microwave briefly- maybe 20 seconds- until they get soft and the chocolate gets melty. How yum is that?
